Coddock! Possible Cod/Haddock Hybrid?

The inshore dragger "Bantry Bay" skippered by Dan Murphy recently landed an unusual specimen, with coloring of a Cod and features of a Haddock this is the second known landing of this hybrid fish. Back in March of 2007 the Rockport dragger "Terminator" landed a similar specimen.

Also in this post I headed to Newburyport and caught the "Early Times" coming in to offload. And Josh catching a gull chick that wandered into the offloading dock at Gloucester Seafood Display Auction looking for a free meal.
